A Lovely Dog, a Nice Couple & a Terrible Mutant., January 9, 2008
This review is from: Watchers (Turtleback School & Library Binding Edition) (School & Library Binding)
"Watchers" is a great story to be read.
Dean Koontz has a superlative genius for depicting scenes with constant and subtle increase of tension. With very tiny elements, a normal engagement, turns into a hair-raising situation.
The dog-human relationship is very dearly and shows a deep penetration of the author on canine psyche. Every dog-lover person will be seduced by the mutated Golden Retriever that is righteously named "Einstein".
Even the hideous "Outsider" has its attractive traits.
It looks like every reader will be satisfied as the book contains romance, horror, adventure, fantasy, thrill, monster, wonder-dog, psycho-killer, dogged cop, whatever. The whole story is very neatly tied up and keep you running chapter after chapter until the end.
It is a book that may be enjoyed by thrillers fans and general public too.

Watchers - HARDBACK, August 23, 2006
This review is from: Watchers (Turtleback School & Library Binding Edition) (School & Library Binding)
Watchers is a great story. I bought this item for my wife so she could read it on our vacation. She needed larger print than the paperback version so I found this hardback on Amazon. When the book arrived, it was a paperback that someone had converted into a hardback by changing the cover.
I was dissapointed with the purchase.
